Chapter 86: The Strongest Excavators

Weapon protection custom was one of the eyeballs of 'Cat Ear Cat' and was advertised a long time before it was released.

Against the background of the character holding the hammer for the blacksmith, 'A custom weapons manufacturing system with endless possibilities! There's only one original weapon in the world with your hands!' I thought you said something like that, but from one point on I suddenly stopped advertising about weapons custom, and I stopped touching on weapons custom in game articles, etc.

And the weapon custom system that was implemented in the game was not the system that anyone who saw the publicity anticipate, modifying the weapon to their liking or manufacturing it from scratch, but a synthetic system that could only combine existing weapons, with no occasions at all to use a hammer.

Although some people suspected that the system they were promoting could not be implemented, this weapon custom system was surprisingly popular.

This custom weapon manufacturing, no, let's get this straight. A weapon synthesis system is a simple thing where you can collect three good places to be one weapon.

However, it was simple but thus the producer's malice did not mix, making it purely a useful feature for the player.

As explained earlier, the appearance of this device is a large, empty body with three holes marked 'Shape', 'Performance' and 'Special'.

Easy to use.

For example, suppose there was a weapon with a cool appearance of A but soggy performance, and a weapon with a good performance of B but looking too dull.

In this case, if A is placed in the hole marked 'Shape' and B is placed in the hole marked 'Performance' to activate the device, a custom weapon with B's performance is completed with the appearance of A.

Of course if you reverse where you put it, you can also make the worst weapon that combines the appearance of B with the performance of A.

No one does that, you'd think, but there's actually a demand for that kind of negative synthesis.

In fact, I also used synthesis to detune my favorite weapon at the end of the Cat Ear Cat play, where my character became too strong.

Looking back now, I'm talking about how obsolete I was.

In a little more detail, would it be easy to explain that the elements of a weapon can be divided into three parts: 'shape', 'performance' and 'special', and that three parts can be combined?

Elements belonging to "shape" are like "appearance, weapon type, weight", elements belonging to "performance" are like "attack power, level, HP", and elements belonging to "special" are like "additional attributes, special abilities, unique skills".

Of the "shapes," "performance," and "special," only one weapon is excellent or vice versa, and only one weapon is useless.

It is naturally beneficial to be able to gather only the good parts of such a thing and create the ideal weapon.

However, I also touched on it when I first explained the agnostic fire, but in this world if it is a weapon of the same level, it will have the same attack power regardless of its type.

Since the difference in attack power for each type of weapon is expressed in weapon type correction, there is no significant numerical difference in attack power between the potentially destructive large axe and the potentially poor dagger.

So I can synthesize a big, blown axe with an easy to get around dagger to make an easy to get around dagger with the power of a big, blown axe, oh my god, that basically doesn't happen.

However, there is one weapon that happens similar to that, which exists in this' cat ear cat '.

- "Meat Cutting Knife".

With its exceptional offensive power and the weight of 66, which I can only think of as a story instead, this weapon is very unbearable for practical use as it is.

However, the extraordinary attack power, which is a positive element of this weapon, is the ability to belong to 'performance', while the weight, which is a negative element, belongs to 'shape'.

This weapon becomes a very good synthetic material given that it only pulls out 'performance'.

And on the other hand, here's another unusual weapon.

- "Ignorant Fire".

A weapon that looks like just a knife, while the weapon species of a machete is set by the mistakes of the staff.

Weapon type correction is an overwhelming offensive weapon in the same class, but it is a mid-level weapon.

At the end of the day when the weapon's offensive power is inflating, unfortunately, it cannot be described as a strong weapon.

However, because weapon types and weights are elements that can be inherited by synthesis, this weapon can be the best synthetic material.

What kind of weapon can you do if you combine the two weapons of this strong habit?

I feel it in the game.

"Well, I'll let you use it"

That's what I said, I approached the weapons synthesizer.

I was actually going to restore the endurance of the weapon, but it doesn't matter because if synthesized, I can do it at my HP max.

I'll take the weapon out of the bag before the big one.

This synthesis was the same thing in the game that opens windows and manipulates menu screens as equipment, but there is no such thing in this world.

I imagined it, but it seemed like I needed to put weapons in my own hands.

But it looks more like this one than just selecting three weapons on the screen and making it easy to synthesize them by pushing the decision.

I started working, remembering the excitement I hadn't felt in a long time.

First, put an agnostic in the hole marked 'Shape' and close the lid.

Next, I struggle with the hole marked 'Performance' to fit the meat cutting knife and close the lid.

Only put nothing in the 'special' hole, only close the lid.

For some reason, this synthesizer can be activated if there is even one weapon in it, and the items that have been left blank reflect the performance of the weapon put in the other hole (or later, if there were two).

So in this case, the 'shape' would be agnostic, and the 'performance' and 'special' would be capable of a weapon called a meat-cutting knife.

Well, neither the agnostic fire nor the flesh-cutting knife should have had any special abilities, so I wouldn't mind either weapon's ability being reflected in this case.

By the way, with a bug move that uses this,

· Put in the weapon A you want to increase in the 'shape' and decide to leave nothing in the other items.

-A's ability is copied to "performance" and "special".

· Cancel and unplug weapon A from the 'shape' and put in weapon B that doesn't matter.

· Synthesized as is because "performance" and "special" somehow retain weapon A data.

· Weapon with "performance" and "special" of weapon A is completed with "shape" of weapon B.

-Weapon A doesn't diminish, so you can make as many weapons with the same capabilities as Weapon A!

There was an absurd weapon growth technique, but this has been modified by boulders.

It's a shame.

Either way, now you're ready.

All you have to do is put as much element into the crystal on the front of the device as you need, and the device should start on its own.

This is fine, Mitsuki nodded when I sent the gaze meaning to Mitsuki, who stood behind me.

Decide, hit and activate your crystal on the center of the Kama crystal.

The difficulty of synthesis is that depending on the quality of the finished product, the necessary elements, that is, the amount of money consumed, will increase acceleratively, but it will not be a major disadvantage to me in my current billionaire state.

An element is poured into my crystal and the device moves out.

As soon as I did, my skin wobbled with a move that I just thought was gagging, no matter how I looked at it.

- Gashacon Gashacon Gashacon, Byrne!!

Synthesis began with noises like grass-cream washing machines and cartoon phonetics that heard rumors, and soon ended.

In the meantime, it's really less than three seconds.

It is an unlikely high performance machine.

Three doors, written 'Shape', 'Performance' and 'Special', open simultaneously, and a swing of knife from inside reveals itself.

I took it without hesitation.

For appearance, the appearance is no different from that of agnostic fire.

But I felt that the power hidden there had become stronger in the wrong digits.

"That's awesome, that sword.

Just watching and feeling so powerful that I tremble "

Even I did, so Mitsuki, the master of swords, must have figured that out clearly.

The cat ear said, "It's gonna blow!" and trembled a little.

(Speaking of which, what can I call this weapon?

In the game, if a weapon was synthesized with a synthesizer, it was randomly synthesized up to the name of the finished weapon.

Once upon a time, when a weapon named "Glowing Glory Long Sword", "Bandit's Head Knife" or "Glittering Great Sword" was formed, I accidentally pressed the reset button.

Now I think it tastes great as a story, but it's something I've done sparingly.

(Ma, whatever)

The name of the weapon doesn't come up in this world anyway.

Follow the appearance and decide to call it 'agnostic fire' as it has always been.

(Well, here's where it comes from)

First, I took a weapon out of my bag that I bought from Ramric that I didn't need anymore and stuck it in a 'performance' hole.

And take the other item out of the bag.

"It's..."

Mitsuki's cat ear spreads to the side in surprise.

What I took out was a sculpture knife.

Although it belongs to the weapons category at first, it is not set to a synthesizable item and does not appear on the synthesis menu, so it was not possible to synthesize the weapon.

"Is it weird to synthesize this after all?

"Naturally. It's... it would be strange to synthesize it."

In a badly chopped tone, but I assure you.

After all, for humans in this world, there seems to be psychological resistance to synthesizing sculpture knives.

That must be an abhorrence beyond reason, similar to what humans in this world think 'only two rings can be equipped'.

Probably a game systemic constraint.

But I already know that that kind of psychological constraint doesn't apply to me.

I put a sculpture knife in the 'shape' hole without hesitation.

"Ah...!

Mitsuki raised her voice, but she starts the device without worrying.

Then,

- Gashacon Gashacon Gashacon, Byrne!!

Make a sound and the synthesis is complete, and once again the sculpture knife reveals itself before me.

I don't see any change from the looks of it.

"Yep... do it!

I stabbed a sculpture knife at a wooden man for a trial run, which I left on the side.

No resistance, crisp sting.

Impossible power with a regular sculpture knife.

The effect of proper synthesis is shown.

I even tried it with another non-synthetic sculpture knife to try, but I still couldn't exert that much power.

Again, even a weapon that could not be synthesized in the game, you can assume that synthesis will succeed as long as it can be put in a synthesizer.

- Then this is the real deal.

Something I really want to synthesize.

I challenge the synthesis of "Konjutsu", which was impossible in the game.

There are three problems with "Thoroughly Vajra".

When it is removed from the cooler box because it is in the influence of the throwing skill, it shall strike.

That it may be treated as stolen because it was put in the box in an irregular way.

It's a special weapon, so it can't be used except by Asahi.

First two above, but this is probably easy to solve just by putting on a synthesizer.

The weapon created by synthesis comes out completely unaffected by special conditions or skills, with no loss of HP.

Many players performed 'only one weapon synthesis', which should not have made sense, because everything, such as positive effect enchants, is also eliminated, but cursed and stolen states are also lifted instead.

This is a popular little trick for a slightly black 'cat ear cat' player, called 'Weapon Laundering', but it will work well in this case as well.

One of the last difficult questions here is that 'Vajra Thorough' is a dedicated weapon, but this should also be theoretically possible to disarm if synthesis is used.

It has already been clarified by the verifications of many 'cat ear cat' players that the equipment limitations for special weapons belong to the 'shape'.

In fact, some specialized weapons were available by replacing the 'shape' with another item.

However, there wasn't much of a turn for this technique, as most powerful specialized weapons, including 'Vajra Thorough', were not synthesizable weapons.

But in this world where there are no restrictions on the weapons that can be put into synthetic machines, you can also synthesize "Vajra" and turn it into an item that can be used by anyone.

There's just a little blind spot, or a little obstacle to execution.

It means I really can't put this' Vajra Thorough 'in the device alone.

In order to carry out what I think is an operation, one person, always needs the presence of a collaborator.

So I looked back there and bowed my head.

"Mitsuki. Fold it in and do me a favor."

Her ears jumped.

And five minutes later.

"Are you ready?

Mitsuki stands on the opposite side of Kamado and me in front of the "Performance" hole, waiting for me in such a position as to pull a cooler box over the hole.

Mitsuki initially reluctantly cooperated by saying, "Taking charge of a single stick that will crush our family treasure on a boulder..." but I said, "There's only one person I can count on!" When I asked hard, my attitude gradually softened, offering me a little more help than I thought.

My sincere appeal that it's not just for personal gain and that this weapon is what we need in the future must have reached Mitsuki's heart.

Whatever it was, getting a collaborator named Mitsuki made it possible to execute the operation.

Well, I said maneuvers and stuff, but the contents are really simple.

The spear is supposed to fly towards me, so when Mitsuki opens the cooler box with me standing on the other side of the synthesizer, nature and the spear are a big mess of plans that will jump into the device.

Side differences have already been placed in the 'shape' hole.

When you activate the device by putting "Vajra" in one hole or the other here, you should be able to have a weapon that you have never even acquired during the game, in the form of a sidebar and with the ability to "Vajra".

The position of the hole and the position of the face were checked many times.

There is no drain, it should be.

"Oh, do it!

When I spoke, Mitsuki opened the cooler box.

- Don!

Shortly afterwards, something hits hard in the synthesizer.

Apparently, the spear got into the synthesizer well.

I can't get my hair in.

"Lid, closed"

From Mitsuki across the street, I heard a report.

(It went well!

When I accidentally clenched my fist,

- Gah, gah, gah, gah!!

Sounds like a drill at the construction site reached my eardrum.

Where the sound comes from, I don't even have to think about it.

(Are you scraping walls from the inside!?

As a worst prediction, I didn't even assume it for once.

Skill effects disappear only after synthesis.

If the skill effect is still active during the synthesis, "Konkotsu" will target me even from inside the device!

"Mitsuki!

"I'm doing it!

Gashacon Gashacon and Kamado begin to sound as they respond to my screaming words.

Mitsuki sent magic to Crystal.

But...

- Gaga, gaga, gaga!!

So much noise that it presses, it reaches my eardrum.

And no heart, or the sound grows louder.

Maybe it's close to opening.

(If we don't make it, what do we do?

There's a cooler box on the other side, now I can't make it.

Assuming there's any chance I can intercept it otherwise, it's about "The Moment May Rain Slash," but I don't think I can timing it for a flying spear.

(I think maybe here...)

Stuffed, for three too long seconds.

When a weak thought came up in my head,

- Byrne!!

Unlike the sound of a spear scraping a wall, it sounds prestigious but comical.

"... done, did you?

No matter how long I wait, I can't hear that roar anymore.

The device is completely silent.

"Apparently, it went well"

And so, to the voice of Mitsuki, who turned around and called out so,

"... haha"

I finally remember to breathe.

Well, I've been cold sweated by "Vajra Thoroughly" once and twice, but I'm looking forward to starting from here.

I took the finished weapon out of the synthesizer.

"Hmm."

Naturally, but it only looks like a normal sidebar.

But if you cut an earlier woodworker to try,

"Wow!

Like butter, no, the woodworker cut off so easily that he probably even cut the water already.

Surprised.

Or I'm too hung up and scared.

Scary, but successful!

I looked at Mitsuki's face unexpectedly, and Mitsuki looked at me, too, and the two of us shared a smile of complicity...

But I was sweet.

Twice, three times.

The "Vajra Thorough" backlash was not yet over.

"What was that noise earlier?!

It was Asahi, the dojo owner of this dojo, who jumped into the room with the screams.

Apparently, he heard the digging noise earlier, and he's been running this far.

He has no cat ears, but he is a good ear.

"Oh, no, that was nothing earlier, and if I was building a little weapon, I'd get tense..."

I can't say, "That's the last resistance of 'The Vajra Thorough'".

Asahi's eyes turned to mine when I swung my hand.

"Mr. Soma! That, that weapon..."

"Ah...!

It's no longer the same business that came to this occasion.

Asahi's gaze was nailed to the sidelines I had.

"Ugh, um, still.

The weapon looks very different from a normal object at first sight, but it has tremendous power within it, doesn't it?

It's no worse than its prestige, or 'Vajra Toru' "

"Oh, this, the..."

Well, the performance is the same, so it's no less natural than winning.

"At all, you spare me too.

If you have such a weapon, you should have shown it to me during the trial.

Where the hell did you get that dagger?

There is no evil in Asahi's words.

He is merely asking about its coming, purely as a samurai or as a weapon user.

But that's why it's unnecessary for me to have something backwards.

"Uh, I mean, this weapon, hey..."

A cold sweat spilled out of my forehead looking desperately for a way to open it.

- "Vajra Toru".

It is a famous spear that has lost its shape and yet penetrates its enemies.
